Foundation for TransformationTranslating Evidence into Practice (NAP 805)
Term: 2018-2019 Acad Yr Summer
Description
The science of dissemination and implementation (D&I) seeks to address the gap between evidence and practice by exploring how to ensure that evidence-based innovations are effectively delivered within clinical and community practice. Dissemination science is the study of how evidence-based innovations can best be communicated to potential adopters while implementation science is the study of what happens after adoption occurs, particularly in organizational settings. In this course, students will explore D&I theories/frameworks, methodologies, ethical issues and organizational factors associated with moving evidence-based innovations into practice across different healthcare settings.
